#CauseKindness
W.E.B.
W.E.B. which stands for “Where Everybody Belongs” is a middle school orientation and transition program that welcomes 6th graders and makes them feel comfortable throughout the first year of their middle school experience. Built on the belief that students can help students succeed, the program trains 8th-grade students to be WEB Leaders. WEB leaders will be in the same Advisory class with their assigned 6th graders throughout the school year.
PTSA
Our DMS PTSA provides many experiences for students and staff throughout the school year! From our favorite Color Run fundraiser to awesome grade level celebrations, the DMS PTSA enjoys celebrating all of the great people at DMS!
Graduate Profile
In LPS, we believe the following components that make up the Graduate Profile will enable students to be successful not only in their time at LPS but in their future endeavors.
